About this ebook

This edited volume focuses on the changing landscape of English language learning and teaching. It equips English language teachers with cutting-edge knowledge and developments in English language learning and teaching which they need to teach a diverse body of learners and instruct in a multipolar environment.

The book empowers English language teachers to teach in educational contexts where diversity, variety, complexity and fluidity are paramount. The book is a must-read for English language teachers, professionals, practitioners, researchers and ELT teacher trainees and trainers.
